    I have a question about recovery. I have been experiencing pain in my neck, somewhere around the C1 to C7 vertebrae, as well as in my upper back, and I can clearly feel the soreness or weird pain from T2 to T4 or possibly T5. This pain initially began 9 months ago after I was stacked aggressively during a roll. I thought it was just my T2, and I rested for a week but I could always felt a little bit of the back but the pain resurfaced last week and is affecting me again. Now, I can feel discomfort somewhere in the C1 to C7 region, and I am clearly experiencing issues in my upper back from T2 to T4/T5.I am looking for guidance on how to recover, as I hope I won’t experience paralysis.

    What these videos miss are good set ups and timing which 100 percent of the time will determine if these techniques work or not. This will not work if you don’t unbalance your opponent and catch the leg when there is no weight on it. Pointless to even teach this without even a good simple set up.

    • @themerge.online
      @themerge.online 16 днів тому

      @@The021589cjr no risk technique like this doesn’t need a set up. A set up is great but there is no risk here. If I miss it… I am still back in a good stance ready to go. If I’m taking a single leg, or double leg, or a higher risk shot where my body could be in bad positioning if I miss it then set ups are critical. Easy concept

      If you snap the arms down you could snap his arms right into a downblock (i think that is more your question/concern), but you want to level change and go right as you snap the arms, catch them off guard.. If you are concerned about it you can always pop the arms up to clear them totally.

    • @themerge.online
      @themerge.online 26 днів тому

      When you shoot you are going to do a "penetration step" AKA "drop step." Your lead leg will step forward and you will go heel, toe, knee. Drive your knee over your toes until it hits the mat. The trail leg (the one behind you) will follow and step up to it's foot. You drive off the trail leg, keep your head up, ear in the lat, short choppy steps, and finish..
